Salam Friends ….. After long time am posting here … life becomes very busy &age factor is there as well

And after long time Intel has made some interesting change in its CPUs, upgrading i3 to 4/4& i5 6/6 …since 1[SUP]st[/SUP] gen. it was 2/4 i3 & 4/4 i5 …… thanks go to Ryzen which has pushed Intel to revise its plans ...

Budget didn’t allow me to get un unlocked processors, though i5 8400 is an interesting product, might its base clock 2.8ghz is disappointing but its turbo boost reaches 3.8 GHz with 6/6 cores which is impressive…

You guys may take look at benchmarks below and compare them with your systems … a 24k i5 8400 can be easily compete with 35~39k i7 6700l/7700k

All tests were taken @ stock settings, though ram xmp 3200 but tests were taken @ 2133 except Winrar which is taken at both 2133 & 3200

Congrats bro

& not CURRENTLY having a B or H series mobo is only Con for me, The Z370 mobo is not really worth for i5 8400 as compared to a unlocked i5 8600K

thanks bro .. i read somewhere that z270 boards are capable for 8th gen but intel block their support in firmware/bios so people are forced to buy new high end chipset, h/b series expected next year .. so purely business strategy

thank sir ... am most happy to see you here :)
ryzen really a deserved buy .. however budget limitations as well a fear from AMD resale & after sale service here & compatibility made me to choose intel, though trade option there with 1800x later on ..

Masha Allah and congratulations for such an effective upgrade. For intel users, I think coffeelake deserve to be in the new rigs, however, the price isn't Too good, to be honest.

All credit goes to AMD's Ryzen release. It has turned the tables completely.
